Essays on derivatives pricing

, 2018
In the first part, by using convexity, we employ a fast algorithm to obtain upper and lower price bounds for a classical (univariate) European option written on a discrete-dividend-paying Black-Scholes asset in closed form, and show that those bounds converge to the true option price. The errors introduced decrease with the square of the discretisation
